Which means fractions where trailing 0's are cancelled are trivial. So we will ignore all the cases where we have to cancel 0's.
How these two sentences are connected? It is similar to "the cat can eat a mouse. So let's not count elephants in the room".
If we are planning to ignore all the cancellation of 0, why do we need to write something about trailing zeros and trivial fractions?
